Robin Hood, that heroic figure of English folklore, purportedly stole from the wealthy to support the downtrodden of medieval society. While technically a scofflaw, his championship of the poor and moral clarity have endeared him to subsequent generations of children for centuries. 

President Joe Biden and California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom, through recent proposed and approved changes in California’s Medicaid program, are now about to perpetrate the opposite: taxing lower and middle-class U.S. taxpayers to fund the healthcare needs of wealthy Californians.  

Given this administration’s propensity to do the same with other such initiatives, the recent action in California should not be surprising. Biden delivered student loan forgiveness for couples earning up to $250,000 per year, supplemental Covid-related ACA subsidies lasting through 2025 for families earning up to $400,000 per year, and $7,500 subsidies regardless of income for those purchasing electric vehicles that only the wealthy can afford. Yet, each of these contradicts the moral underpinning of Robin Hood’s intent.
